Injuries from professional negligence can be either physical or financial in nature. While medical malpractice can result in severe damage to patients, a negligent professional can seriously cripple a client’s financial well-being. All professionals need to be held accountable for their actions so they maintain proper duty of care at all times.
Any of the following may commit professional negligence, leading to harm and damages:
Proving professional negligence can be extremely difficult. Receiving poor service does not necessarily mean there was professional negligence. To prevail, we still need to demonstrate that there was a breach of professional duty. This often involves obtaining expert witness testimony which can explain how an accident could have been avoided with proper care.
Our experienced New York professional negligence lawyers are knowledgeable about the type of care and services you deserve to receive from professionals. We also understand the appropriate compensation you will require when professional negligence results in injury or financial harm, which can include medical costs, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Very positive experience and highly recommend.Richard KennedyMay 3, 2024I would recommend Edward Ruffo to the highest degree possible for anyone in need of a top-notch medical malpractice lawyer. Over the past six years, he has provided me with exceptional service and support. From day one, Mr Ruffo was incredibly attentive, always taking the time to explain complex legal processes in a way that I could understand. Moreover, he even gave me his personal cell phone. Allowing me to reach out, whenever I had questions or needed further clarity. What truly sets Mr Ruffo apart though, is how tirelessly he fought on my behalf. He went above and beyond in all matters, and allowed me to focus on my health while he took care of the rest.
